=== Climate and soil requirements === Due to its C4 photosynthetic system, proso millet is thermophilic like [[maize]], so shady locations of the field should be avoided. It is sensitive to temperatures lower than {{ Convert | 10 to 13 | C }}. Proso millet is highly drought-resistant, which makes it of interest to regions with low water availability and longer periods without rain.<ref name="Biohirse">Merkblatt fΓΌr den Anbau von Rispenhirse im biologischen Landbau, www.biofarm.ch, http://www.biofarm.ch/assets/files/Landwirtschaft/Merkblatt_Biohirse_Version%2012_2010.pdf(23.11.14) {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150203161307/http://www.biofarm.ch/assets/files/Landwirtschaft/Merkblatt_Biohirse_Version%2012_2010.pdf |date=2015-02-03 }}</ref><ref name="Pearl">{{cite book |vauthors= Hanna WW, Baltensperger DD, Seetharam A |year=2004 |chapter=Pearl Millet and Other Millets |title=Warm-Season (C4) Grasses |series=Agronomy Monographs|volume=45 |pages=537β560 |veditors=Moser LE, Burson BL, Sollenberger LE |doi=10.2134/agronmonogr45.c15|isbn=9780891182375 }}</ref> The soil should be light or medium-heavy. Due to its flat root systems, soil compaction must be avoided.
